20 Nov 2012 in National Assembly:
Asante sana, Bw. Naibu Spika wa Muda. Yangu ni kuunga mkono marekebisho ya sheria hii. Kulitokea makosa kwetu sisi kuchukua majukumu ya bodi ya kukagua majaji na mahakimu na kugawanya majukumu ili mahakimu waweze kukaguliwa na tume ya mahakama ambayo ilikuwa na shughuli na kazi tofauti ambazo ziliwekwa kisheria kwenye Katiba kwa mujibu wa Katiba yetu ya Kenya. Jambo hili limetatiza sana hasa Wakenya ambao walitaka kazi hii iendelee vilivyo na ilivyopaswa ili majaji na mahakimu waweze kuendelea na kazi zao bila wasiwasi. Kwa hivyo, bodi hii ni haki kabisa irudishiwe majukumu yake iweze kufanya kazi hii na vile vile ...

Ahsante sana Bwana Naibu Spika. Pia naunga mkono Hoja hii ya sisi kufunga ili kuelekea maeneo ya Bunge tulikotoka; kule tulikochaguliwa. Kazi imefanyika na Wabunge sasa hivi wanatakiwa kuelekea manyumbani ili waweze kuzungumza na wananchi waliotupatia fursa hii ya kuwa kwenye Bunge hili la kifahari, Bunge la Kumi. Ningependa pia kuchukua fursa hii kuwapongeza Bwana Nyegenye na Bwana Bundi kwa kuwa wameteuliwa kusimamia ukatibu wa Bunge na Senate. Wataanza kazi hivi karibuni ili kutekeleza majukumu hayo ambayo ni mazito. Kwa sababu ni watu ambao walikuwa wameshafanya kazi na wanaelewa kazi za hapa, itakuwa nyepesi kwao. Natumaini kwamba wataweza kuiendeleza kazi ...

10 Oct 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to join the others in congratulating Dr. Joyce Laboso for having brought this Bill to the House. From the outset, I also want to put a request to her for some reasons. I want her to hold on (if she will accept) and wait for the following things that we, as a Ministry, are doing. We passed the National Social Security Policy through the Cabinet and the procurement for printing took a bit long. However, it is now at the printing stage and it will come for debate on the Floor of this ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is not that I am worried but I just wanted to request my sister to hold on and be a bit patient so that we move on together. I appreciate

10 Oct 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish I had been allowed to go on and explain. They would have understood. There is a lot of goodwill already coming from the Government. It is not like you are talking to a Government which is not aware of what its people are suffering from. This is a Government which is already implementing something that has not even been put in a policy. It is now coming to a policy level. The Government has gone out of its way. We are already covering over 210,000 beneficiary households in this country. We have been ...

4 Oct 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. The Cash Transfer Programme for older persons was started in 2007 in three districts; Busia, Nyando and Thika. It has since covered several districts including Kisii South District. In the last financial year, we were covering 36,036 households but in this financial year we are scaling upwards to 55,000 households. Kisii South District was brought on board in the financial year of 2009/10 and it has 110 beneficiaries. We disbursed the funds as Kshs2, 000 times two months; that is bi-monthly, through the Postal Corporation of Kenya.

4 Oct 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I had earlier said, over 20,000 households will be added this financial year and we intend to include Kisii South District which is Mr. Onyancha’s constituency. We intend to add it amongst the beneficiaries who will have a scaling up being done. This will happen in 173 constituencies and Kisii South District is one of the areas in which we will do the scaling up. I just want to assure the hon. Member that within the next few weeks more constituents from his area will be on board. Whereas this was being done in a---

4 Oct 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was just talking about Kisii South District being one of the areas where we will scale upwards with over 20,000 households who will be added to the list. This financial year we have Kshs1.5 billion from which the extra Kshs500 million will be used for scaling up in all the constituencies in the country. We stopped being a pilot programme and now we will cover the whole country. Unfortunately, since the funds are not more than the Kshs1.5 billion that we have, we intend to have equality in all the districts and constituencies in the country.

4 Oct 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, for as long as we do not have so much being given to that kitty, then it becomes difficult for me to say that we will start considering equity. An example is Bonchari Constituency where we are just giving to 110 households and there are thousands of people who are supposed to be on board. As much as we want to consider equity in terms of poverty levels, the beneficiaries are still so few but we are hoping that by the time we get to the mark of Kshs2 billion, then we should be able to also ...
